Edvard Munch The viewer is left to make his own conclusions as to what the artist is trying to show us. The depressing sunset in the painting can bring into play all kinds of images of horror. Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” was painted in the end of the 19th century, and is possibly the first Expressionist painting of that time. The Scream was very different from the art of the time, when many artists tried to represent objective realism. Edvard Munch's most famous work has gained enormously in popularity over time. Perhaps the fear here shows us that the artist has become more widespread in recent decades. From neck ties, bed spreads, mouse pads, even night lights. The oil paintings title is the perfect example of the emotion that Munch seems to want to relay to us the viewers. This well-known image has become one of the most powerful sign of agony. A lone withered figure stands at a still on a bridge clutching his ears, his eyes and mouth open wide in a scream of suffering. Behind him a couple are walking together in the opposite direction.
